Knife:
The Tuatara is the ultimate camp knife to take on the outdoors. This tough blade is built for a multitude of tasks like setting up camp, building shelters, cutting rope, fire building, and much more. The slanted tip (clip point) allows for a strong yet sharp point for caping hides and piercing material. Since its release in 2022, the Tuatara has been a go-to for “beefier” Shed Knives models. If you’re looking for a knife that can take a beating, the Tuatara is for you.
Handle:
The G-10 scales (handle) can be replaced/removed with a 3/32" allen head wrench. The three pairs of handle screws are coated in a matte black oxide finish to match with the black Kydex sheath and Midnight Black G-10 incorporated with each 2025 Model.
Sheath:
All 2025 models come with a black Kydex sheath. The Kydex sheath allows the knife to click into place and stay there without the worry of your knife cutting through the sheath (which happens with leather and Nylon) or fall out. Kydex also stays extremely stable across the majority of environments you may face, unlike leather sheaths.
Additional Features:
The 2025 Shed Knives Collection features a few similarities across the entire collection. The 1/8" jimping on the spine of the knife is a nice addition to help you maintain a firm grip on the knife for better control. The sharpening choil also helps you with sharpening as it allows for a distinct separation between the blade and handle. This also aids in sharpening completely to the heel of the blade. The lanyard hole design can be used to attach the knife to rope, line, D-rings, gear, and more. The soft corners of the lanyard hole allow rope to lock in while the triangular design limits sharp angles that could cut rope.
